Ok..install LSB.

Since you don't say what version/distro of Linux, we can't tell you more than that. Most online repositories have it, and you can install it from there.

i will try and install lsb like you said, but i am facing another challenge
i am trying to install adobe reader,

"error: Failed dependencies:
libstdc++.so.6(CXXABI_1.3.1) is needed by AdobeReader_enu-9.3-1.i486
libstdc++.so.6(GLIBCXX_3.4.5) is needed by AdobeReader_enu-9.3-1.i486

I think you should INSTALL THE MISSING DEPENDENCIES. If you're missing dependencies, that's the only thing you can do, no matter what package you're installing.

And what version of RedHat??? If you've got RHEL, and you're paying for support, you can type in "yum install lsb", etc....

i am not paying for support. and i am using RHCL. i have been trying to search for the dependencies but haven't seen.
What should i do.


Thanks

What is RHCL?? If you mean RHEL, and you're not paying for support, the online repositories won't be available. You can install them from your installation media, or try to download them from the RedHat website.

Otherwise, install CentOS, or another community-supported repository. Either way, you have no choice but to install the missing packages to continue, period. You say you have searched...where??
